The class continues to amaze me each week with their mastery of the spelling patterns we are working on. We will continue to practice daily in school and will send home the list as they write them for home. Keep up the outstanding work Seals!!

We are also giving the class a choice as to whether they bring home the baggies of books or read the ones they have at home. This is often a time in first grade when the children enjoy the books from home that they have not been able to read independently before. It is also a wonderful time to start a family chapter book. They are experts on talking about the text!
